If a given triangle ABC with a = 12, b = 10 and c = 8, please help me find the angles in minutes.
:
Using the law of cosines: a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc*Cos(A)
:
Rearrange formula to find Angle A
Cos(A) =
:
Cos(A) =
:
Cos(A) = = = .125
:
A = 82.81924422 degrees
Find the minutes, mult the decimal portion times 60:
A = 82 degree, 49.15 minutes
:
:
Find Angle B
Cos(B) =
:
Cos(B) =
:
Cos(B) = = = .5625
:
B = 55.77113367 degrees
Find the minutes, mult the decimal portion times 60:
B = 55 degrees, 46.28 minutes
:
:
Find Angle C by subtracting the known angles from 180:
:
180 - 82.81924422 - 55.77113367 = 41.40962211
Which is:
C = 41 degrees, 24.58 minutes
